Once the dishes air dry, do you have water spots? I do. Not sure what I am doing wrong.

[@diycosmetica]

We don’t get water spot here. It’s mainly because of minerals in the water, so it’s depends on the water of your living area. If you have “hard water” you’ll get the water spots. Citric acid can help you with that. You can add 1% of citric acid for total fat weight. Citric acid acts as a chelator (it binds to to the minerals in hard water). When adding citric acid you need to calculate and balance the lye amount, 1 gram of citric acid consumes 0.624g of sodium hydroxide (NaOH) so you’ll need to calculate and add lye accordingly. Don’t add more than 2% citric acid, I suggest you start by adding 1% in a small batch and see if that’s enough.

Great recipe.....what strength lye have u used for this, 97% ???? And what is your superfat level?? I have made dish soap using coconut oil alone at 0% superfat but always end up feeling the utensils are still greasy after washing-leaves an oily film, could it be because of hard water....my bar does foam really well..... don't know what I am doing wrong, could it be because I ma only using coconut oil....also, does steriac acid help making the bar less greasy?.....I also add sodium lactate, citric acid and sodium gluconate to my soap. Any inputs would be really helpful. Thanks

Thank you! I use 99% strength lye. This is what Spain suppliers are selling here so I never tried less then 99%. Also the quality for the water makes a difference, if your tap water is hard (in case you’re not using distilled water) you should consider adding citric acid to the water and adjust the lye amount. Add 1% of citric acid from total oils amount. 10 g citric acid neutralizes 6.24 g NaOH so do the calculation and adjust the lye amount when you add citric acid. I don’t add super fat in dish soaps so there’s no “free” oils in the soap. I add other oils to make the soap less hard on the hands but no super fat. I would recommend to try this recipe with distilled water, make a small amount and test it. If you can’t find distilled water then add the citric acid and add the lye to compensate for the added citric acid. Mix the citric acid with the water to dissolve before adding the lye. Also I’ll make a video soon for súper simple liquid dish soap that I’ve been using the last year. It’s super easy to make and very cleansing as well, I mainly use liquid soap to wash my vitamix 😀 for other dishes I like the solid version.

هل هذه الوصفة تجاريه؟

[@diycosmetica]

If I understand the question correctly - this is my own recipe. I’m sure some companies sell similar products.

[@dileepsingh6181]

Ph balance of it sir, please check

[@diycosmetica]

The PH for this soap (after 5 weeks of curing) is 8.5
